Not only are these Matcha Latte Gummy Bears totally adorable, sweet, and chewy, they’re also vegan and gluten-free thanks to plant-based milk and agar-agar powder!
Ingredients for Vegan Matcha Latte Gummy Bears
You only need five ingredients to make these fun matcha gummies, plus water and salt:
Plant milk. you can use almond, soy, oat, or any vegan milk you’d like.
Agar agar. This is a vegan ingredient to replace gelatin. It helps these gummies come together and hold their shape.
Maple syrup. You can also sweeten with agave if you like.
Vanilla extract for a hint of warming flavor in the latte bears.
How to Make Matcha Gummy Bears
To make these gummies, you’ll need a small saucepan, gummy bear molds, a pipette, and a wire whisk to stir.
Start by dissolving the agar agar, maple syrup, and salt in the milk over medium heat in the saucepan. As soon as it boils, remove the pan from the heat.
Next, sift the matcha powder with hot water whisk until fully incorporated, as if you were making a latte. Add the matcha mixture to the saucepan and whisk again to combine.
Now, use a pipette to fill the gummy bear mold with the liquid mixture. You’ll need to work quickly! Tap the mold on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles. Pop them in the fridge for just 15 minutes, then remove, and you’ll have the cutest matcha latte gummy bears!
Making Two-Toned Gummies
If you’d like to make two-toned gummy bears (milk and matcha), simply divide your milk mixture in half and only add matcha to half of the mixture.
In a small saucepan, combine plant milk, agar powder, maple syrup and a pinch of salt. Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk until you achieve a low boil. Remove from the heat.
Once off the heat, sift matcha powder and then whisk matcha powder with hot water until smooth. Pour this into your milk mixture along with vanilla extract and whisk again until smooth. *If you’d like to make two-toned gummy bears (milk and matcha), divide your milk mixture in half and only add matcha to half of the mixture.
Prepare your gummy bear molds and using a pipette, fill your molds. Be sure to tap out any surface air bubbles as they will be present in your final product!
Refrigerate your gummy bear molds for about 15 minutes, then pop out of your mold.
